Privileged Access Management (PAM) is a security system that monitors, manages and controls privileged users’ access to sensitive information and systems. It is a process of managing and controlling the privileged accounts and credentials that are used to access the systems and applications within an organization’s IT environment.
PAM is an important security tool that helps protect an organization’s data and systems from unauthorized access. PAM provides role-based access control, whereby users are given access to only the information and systems that are necessary for their roles. It also helps organizations track and monitor all privileged users’ activities and detect any suspicious activities.
Steps to use PAM:
1. Identify and Inventory Privileged Accounts
2. Implement Access Controls
3. Monitor and Audit Access
